Hi, You didn't provide a reproducible example. If your dataset is something like this: set.seed(495) DataSeries <- data.frame(Date=seq(as.Date("2001-01-01"),by="1 day", length.out=20), A= sample(10,20,replace=TRUE), B= rnorm(20))
###Using your codes: Matrix_New1 <- cbind(as.list(DataSeries[,"Date"]),as.list(DataSeries[,"A"]),colnames(DataSeries)[2]) Matrix_New2 <- cbind(as.list(DataSeries[,"Date"]),as.list(DataSeries[,"B"]),colnames(DataSeries)[3]) str(Matrix_New1) #List of 60 str(Matrix_New2) #List of 60 Matrix_Complete<- rbind(Matrix_New1,Matrix_New2) str(Matrix_Complete) #List of 120 Col_Names_MC<-c("X","Y", "Z") colnames(Matrix_Complete)<-Col_Names_MC library(lattice) Plot_AB<-xyplot(Y~ X, data =Matrix_Complete, type =c("l"), groups=Z, as.table=TRUE, main="Development over time") #Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object 'Z' not found #You could try: library(reshape2) DataSeriesM <- setNames(melt(DataSeries,id.var="Date"),LETTERS[c(24,26,25)]) xyplot(Y~X,data=DataSeriesM,type="l",groups=Z,as.table=TRUE,main="Development over time") #for a numeric X axis xyplot(Y~as.numeric(X),data=DataSeriesM,type="l",groups=Z,as.table=TRUE,main="Development over time") # with legends xyplot(Y~as.numeric(X),xlab="X",data=DataSeriesM,type="l",groups=Z,as.table=TRUE,main="Development over time",auto.key=list(x=.85, y=.95, border=TRUE,lines=TRUE)) Hope it helps. A.K. Hi everbody, I have the following error message occuring when I run my code: "Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object 'Series' not found" The code I am using is the following: Matrix_New1 <- cbind(as.list(DataSeries[,"Date"]),as.list(DataSeries[,"A"]),colnames(DataSeries)[2] ) Matrix_New2 <- cbind(as.list(DataSeries[,"Date"]),as.list(DataSeries[,"B"]),colnames(DataSeries)[3] ) #whereas first and second columns should be numbers, third column is "A" and "B" respectively Matrix_Complete<- rbind(Matrix_New1,Matrix_New2) Col_Names_MC<-c("X","Y", "Z") colnames(Matrix_Complete)<-Col_Names_MC Plot_AB<-xyplot(Y~ X, data =Matrix_Complete, type =c("l"), groups=Z, as.table=TRUE, main="Development over time") print(Plot_AB) Can you explain me why this way of creating a plot is not working and what I Need to Change in order to be able to plot it? ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
